I was able to purchase a 10 user license which included SQL2000, exchange2000, Office XP Pro, WinXP pro and a bunch of other stuff for $399.00 Also included is automatic upgrade to the new server products as they come out for a year. no extra charge. ===================================== Douglas White group Manager mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.samcfug.org ===================================== ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe Eugene" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, February 03, 2003 1:18 PM Subject: Re: RE: Re: MM Pricing Problem on CFMX for J2EE | >Makes me wonder if MM is trying to compete at all. | I am wondering the same .. dont think there is a competition. | | Win2k Advanced Server = US$3999 | http://www.microsoft.com/catalog/display.asp?site=10188&subid=22&pg=8 | | Now Windows 2003 or Window.Net Licensing is supposedly based on CPU's and supposed to be alot more expensive. | | Joe | | -------Original Message------- | From: Adrocknaphobia Jones <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | Sent: 02/03/03 05:01 PM | To: CF-Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | Subject: RE: Re: MM Pricing Problem on CFMX for J2EE | | > | > Those prices are pretty hefty in comparison to .NET.
